Eleanor & Laurent Part Deux would be amazing there.

Those metal benches still seem like a miss to me. So harsh and uninviting vs a nice wood based design...

They also seem like a hazard for people on scooters. I see people fall off those all the time.

I like them as a one off. The seated part is actually wood, but they are more than just a bench, I see them as art, too, or at least visually interesting to look at.

The exterior colours on this one have grown on me a lot actually.

Not me. It will look cold and barren once snow is on the ground.

That gravel parking lot needs to go.

 

[IanO]

Tell me about it.

 

[Edmonchuk]

How difficult is that to fill those up when there is so much development in suburbs....rhetorical question

 

[IanO]

Landowner rights.

 

[Edmonchuk]

This is BS, not rights... dirt field in the middle of downtown. Can't the city at least make the owner surface it with asphalt?? I hate those parking lots, especially walking there in the mud. Third world.

I think those lots are grandfathered into the city's surface parking lot policy unfortunately.

It's really disappointing because a beautiful, modern urban village to join Omega right at the top of the hill would really help elevate 105th street and our skyline, and could possibly spur some more development and renewal down the street.
